This is quite an important change because if you upload a background image with a player connected, their browser will try to download the image before you’ve finished uploading it! This’ll result in the image failing to download and the player having to refresh to fix the problem.
Now Shmeppy will automatically retry 6 times over about 2 minutes if it fails to download an image.
I believe that background images are now ready to be pushed out to the main site, so please let me know if there’s anything you think I may have missed!
